Question for jv_map

[=Sgt. Daniel R. O*Neil=]

Now i know youre working on multiplayer bots. I hope you dont mind me asking but, im really curious as to how the development is going? Are you working on special features? For example, i use to have the Ro-bot, and the foxbot for TFC. I could change the name of them, and give them individual taunts and things like that. Like i said im just extrememly curious. Ive been thinking how great its gonna be to have a bot on each team or to have a whole team of bots versus us human players on my server. I hope im not sounding impatient or anything but do you have an approximate date you might be releasing your bot? I remember when allied assault first came out. At the EA forums everyone was saying "theres no bots, theres no bots" everyone just sort of hoped someone else would pick up the ball and create some bots. So this is the first ive heard of someone attempting it, which to the rest of us seems unattemptable. I dont know about the rest of you, but for me this is really exciting.

I'm kinda stuck with the bots. I wanted to have them listen to player commands, and asked Scorpio for help. He promised, but he's probably too busy to help

So I'll guess I'll leave out that functionality unless Scorpio helps me within a couple of days. Once I get it on the move again, it should be ready really soon.

Whoa dude no big deal just the fact that i can have a bot being there on my server when im not to keep it going is fantastic enough. ANything else is just extra bonuses to me. Im just blown away that you are able to get a bot into the game at all. Ive literally been thinking about it constantly lol. Im not kidding, ill be in class at BSU and ill just suddenly think about it. Im turning into some kind of mohaa freak or something....eh thats the best kind of freak i think. Now when you say user commands what specifically are these commands that youre trying to get? Like choosing what weapon for the bot or skin or team? Im just not sure what the specifics. WOOOO im gettin excited man lol. well....i also have been drinking a lot of jolt cola lately too. Ahh lol

Yeah now i see what you mean. Yeah some of the bots for TFC had things like that. For example if i made my own map i would have the ability to throw down waypoints in that map and different points would have different tasks like a good place for a sniper or an engineer to build a sentry. The things you guys are talking about in that thread are very similar. Very cool stuff. Thanks for posting that thread. I hope it all goes the way you want it to. Its obvious you've put a lot of thought into this. Ill cheer you on
